SUMMARY:GPRO Fundamentals of Green Building Virtual Training - GBCI\, AIA\, and PDH credits available!
DESCRIPTION:GREEN PROFESSIONAL BUILDING SKILLS VIRTUAL TRAINING  \nGPRO Fundamentals of Building Green \nSession 1: July 21\, 10am – 12pm PST \nSession 2: July 22\, 10am – 12pm PST \nExam will be taken online \n\nVia Zoom \nLink will be sent to partipants who complete registration \nRegister Here \n\n\nThe construction industry is moving quickly towards greener\, high-performing buildings\, creating increased demand across the country for sustainable building skills. \nThis course teaches the basics of sustainability and provides an overview of the essential strategies and work practices that make buildings more efficient. GPRO covers the “green gap” between standard trade skills and the new awareness required to successfully implement sustainable building practices. \nIndividuals with experience in construction and building operations will have an advantage when taking Fundamentals of Building Green and in passing the certificate exam\, but anyone with an interest in green building is encouraged to participate. \nGPRO Fundamentals of Building Green is the prerequisite for all GPRO trade-specific courses.  \nClick here to learn more  \n\nWHAT STUDENTS LEARN \n\nEconomic and health benefits of green building\nCauses and impacts of a changing climate\nTransitioning to sustainable construction practices\nComplying with green codes and standards\nUnderstanding LEED\nOverview of green building strategies\nThe importance of building commissioning (systems quality assurance)\n\n\n\nWhy Attend a GPRO training: \nSheila Washington\, Corporate Sustainability Programs       \nLos Angeles Department of Water and Power \n“The GPRO training was an amazing experience!  The class covers a wealth of information: What is Sustainability\, Measuring Building Performance\, Climate Change and a history of the environmental movement (just to name a few).  The instructors are well versed on the subject matters.  A professional training manual is provided and it’s an excellent reference for all things related to green building\, sustainability\, conservation and more!  I attended the training at Metro headquarters in downtown Los Angeles (adjacent to Union Station).  They offer classes that are open to the public!  After taking the GPRO training I have a better understanding of how green building can positively impact the environment\, communities and jobs.  I recommend this class for anyone interested in creating opportunities for growth in your career.” \n\nIn partnership with Metro\, the Fundamentals of Green Building course is offered virtually in two installments\, and the exam being offered online. The course fee (starting at $225) includes materials\, instruction\, and certification exam. \nPlease provide the appropriate SBE\, DBE or NAICS code to verify your small business or non-profit once you have entered your name and email.
